50 th anniversary trip
Sunshine Casita is a clean, stocked, comfortable home to stay and enjoy the Palo Duro Canyon area. We explored the Canyon and area during the day and it was great to sit on the front or back porches to enjoy the evenings or coffee in the mornings. We enjoyed watching the cows and horses in surrounding pastures. We felt like we were part of Texas!!

Good times
Clean and comfortable. Just what we were looking for, to get away from Dallas. Palo Duro was shut down due to rain. So we improvised in Canyon. Saw a show at the university. Hiked at Cap Rock instead. Watched the cows and a jackrabbit from the back porch. We would stay here again.

A Hidden Gem
Sunshine Casita is a hidden gem in Canyon. It was such a wonderful place to stop on our trip. The house was clean and had all the things that one would need. The back porch has a swing that allows you to sit at night and look at the stars. We spent a few hours out there listening to music, watched a storm move through and then enjoyed the stars. We will definitely be back!

West Texas Experience
We really enjoyed this nice, comfy home. It helped that there was a washer and dryer, because we had just picked our two grandkids up from church camp, on our way to Colorado and their clothes needed a good washing! Would highly recommend this to anyone that wants to be away from he hustle and bustle of the city.

Amazing place!
This was the best rental we have ever stayed in. The host had thought of everything to make the place functional and comfy, plus it looked like it was out of a magazine! Absolutely adorable while also being like a home away from home. We stayed a few nights on our west Texas road trip and visited Palo Duro and Calrock Canyon. This house was convenient to both and also to the cute town of Canton where we found good food and fun stores. Would highly recommend this one!

Sunshine Casita-Delightful!
Four adults with an old dog. Stayed four nights over a long weekend. It’s a delightful accommodation. Perfect for a trip to Canyon, Texas-close to the city and Palo Duro Canyon State Park but out far enough to be relaxing and quiet. Very clean, delightful, colorful decor, comfortable furniture and well-appointed. Communication with the host was easy and responsive. Highly recommend.

Great stay
We enjoyed staying in Sunshine Casita. We were in town to watch our son march in Drum Corp Internationals West TX Drums. The location is just outside town but close to everything. We enjoyed getting up early and hiking in Palo Duro Canyon and seeing Cadillac Ranch and Amarillo. The Casita is cute and clean, with a great kitchen and bathroom. The beds are comfy with tons of pillows. We enjoyed grilling on the back patio and night and watching the sunrise in the morning. Thank you for a great stay!
